Review

I must say from the get-go, I'm not versed in Necrophagia, so take what follows for what it's worth. This is the band's final album and, with Killjoy passing away in 2022, John McEntee of the mighty Incantation and some other guests stepped in. This is a very uneven album with varying recording times and sound, so it really sounds like a bunch of songs strung together than an actual album. That makes for a subpar listening experience despite most songs being actually cool old-school death metal songs. Despite this being messy—in a bad way—the individual songs are, for the most part, really nice death metal cuts and for some of them, the raw, lo-fi recording gives them a little oomph that's bound to give those not hung onto production and the likes a good time. I'm not convinced this was the best thing to do as the swansong for this band, but even though it doesn't gel as an album, there's good death metal to be found here.
